Chapter 3 The affairs of the rivers and lakes, looking at the inner spies

"If Master Chen has the heart, he can give it to Long Qiguan directly, why should he give it to me alone?"

Jiang Changsheng asked, his eyes staring at Chen Li.

Chen Li was stunned for a moment, although he had already experienced the maturity of this son who was different from ordinary people, but he was still shocked, he shook his head and smiled: "What kind of status is Longqiguan, how can I make friends alone, Yu Li is not compatible, and Yu Qing is even more untrue, I just want to make friends with Xiaodao Chang, Xiaodao has such martial arts at a young age, he must be a martial arts leader in the future, and even become a martial champion and serve the court." ”

He was the champion of last year's examination, because of his life experience led to popular discussions, but books are the most important books of inheritance, most of them are in the hands of the scholars, how can civilians pass the examination of the scholars, this year the emperor deliberately implemented the double champion, one each civil and military.

The cost of practicing martial arts in this world is not high, and there are many sects in the world that accept people, but practicing martial arts requires talent, and it is also necessary to study, in comparison, civilians are easier to get ahead in martial arts.

Longqi Temple is a Taoist temple ordered by the emperor himself, and the Chen family does not dare to directly make friends with the Qingxu Taoist Chief, which is easy to arouse the suspicion of the saints.

Jiang Changsheng felt that his words were reasonable, in life, just blindly avoiding it would not be able to stabilize it for a lifetime, but it was also beneficial to make friends with some powerful people.

What's more, although Jiang Changsheng accepted his fate, his mother was not convinced, the fake prince had to find a way to kill him, and the powerful people behind him couldn't let it go.

He looked back on his memories from twelve years ago, and among the powerful people he had heard, there was indeed no surname Chen.

Jiang Changsheng nodded and said, "Then I'll accept it, and I can't thin your face as a little Taoist." ”

Chen Li smiled, he didn't feel ridiculed, as long as the other party accepted it, it was a good start.

The reason why he is so enthusiastic is also influenced by his family, the Chen family needs strong martial artists too much, they have attracted a lot of martial artists, but they are all shaken by interests, Jiang Changsheng is different, he is still young, as long as he gives resources well, sooner or later he will be interested in the Chen family.

Chen Li began to talk about the murder, it turned out that Xue Hai wanted to assassinate him, but he had been staying with the Qingxu Dao Chief, seeking the Taoist method, Xue Hai was bumped into the sneaky by the deceased again, out of the mentality of officials being more businessmen, Xue Hai was forced to ask Xue Hai for a while, Xue Hai was upset, so he killed him, as for Jiang Changsheng, he was completely blamed, it turned out that Xue Hai had seen Jiang Changsheng practicing leg method from a distance at night.

Jiang Changsheng recalled that he did have the feeling of being spied on, but it was fleeting, and he didn't really see the other party, so he didn't take it to heart.

"I'm also too shallow in the world, and I was led astray by Xue Hai's words, and I thought I was smart and saw through the truth." Chen Li sighed, looking quite ashamed.

Seeing that he could admit his mistake, Jiang Changsheng's impression of him changed, and then asked curiously, "Why did Xue Hai kill you?" ”

Chen Li glanced at Qing Ku, who was stunned, and then sensibly withdrew and closed the door.

"This matter involves the previous dynasty, my Chen family was originally an official of the previous dynasty, but later he got lost and returned, Xue Hai is the remnant of the previous dynasty, killing me, just to blame the current dynasty, so that those scholars who surrendered to the court realized that the court was not friendly to the family who took refuge in the previous dynasty, but unfortunately, he failed." Chen Li said helplessly.

The Chen family was really aggrieved, awkward in the current dynasty, and had to face the revenge of the previous dynasty.

Jiang Changsheng had no sympathy, who made you the first champion, and shot the first bird.

From Xue Hai's standpoint, it can be understood that traitors are much more hateful than enemies.

Chen Li didn't say too much about the disputes in the court, knowing that Jiang Changsheng had never come down the mountain, he talked about interesting things in the martial arts.

The martial arts master fights the eight major factions alone, and the martial arts are powerful.

The monk Fu Demon was injured and was poisoned by the hacker stack.

The Holy Maiden of Xuanyin Lou was stolen and infiltrated the boudoir and stole property.

The evil king of the ghost eyes was arrested by the imperial court and sent to the prison.

And so on, Jiang Changsheng listened to it with relish.

Chen Li also popularized the level of martial arts to him, from low to high, they are third-rate, second-rate, first-class and Zhenyuan Realm, which can allow the true qi in the body to attack the enemy in a martial arts way, then it can be regarded as stepping into the True Yuan Realm, Xue Hai is a master of the True Yuan Realm, and has been practicing martial arts for nearly twenty years.

Jiang Changsheng compared, he felt that it was not difficult for him to kill Xue Hai, thanks to the Dao Law Natural Skill, only to practice to the second level, the true qi in his body was enough for him to squander the Divine Shadow Leg and the Nine Heavenly Dragon Steps.

It's still a strong cultivator.

Half an hour passed before Chen Li left.

Jiang Changsheng looked at the cheats on the table and fell into thought.

Will this cheats be poisonous?

……

Spring goes to autumn, since Chen Li left, a few months have passed, the leaves on the Longqi Temple have gradually turned yellow, Jiang Changsheng's days have returned to the past, the disciples are no longer curious about him, and the junior brother Qing Ku in the same house rarely bothers him, just because Qing Ku is also intoxicated with martial arts and can't extricate himself.

If you want to talk about changes, the biggest change is that Jiang Changsheng can also practice openly during the day, his true qi has been growing, and he has initially mastered Vajra Xiao, as for his qi fingers, he has not yet cultivated.

He wanted to fully master Vajra Xiao first, and then practice his qi fingers.

Chen Li never came again, and after the murder, Qingxu Daoist did not see Jiang Changsheng alone.

this day.

Jiang Changsheng had finally reached the third level of Dao Law Natural Skill, and his senses had greatly improved, he could even hear the sound of mosquitoes hundreds of feet away, and even the breathing of other disciples could be heard clearly, this feeling was extremely amazing.

His own true qi did not improve, but he clearly felt that his true qi was changing slightly, perhaps a trend towards spiritual power.

A few hours later, he came to the courtyard, and the disciples had not yet returned to the courtyard, but were still listening to the sermon in the Taoist hall, and he began to practice Vajra.

Cultivating Vajra Xiao, he doesn't need to let go of his throat and roar, he just needs to open up the hidden meridians in his throat, when the true qi resonates, he can judge the power of the roar, the invisible meridians in the past are difficult to be activated, after the breakthrough of the exercises, he found that the process of pouring the true qi into the invisible meridians has become smooth, and there is no pain in the past.

Jiang Changsheng was very happy, sure enough, the exercises were the foundation, and most of the time in the future would still have to be spent on the exercises.

In the evening, Qingku returned to the house.

"Senior brother, the second senior brother plans to take fifteen disciples down the mountain to practice, and specially asked me to ask you, are you willing to go?" Qing Ku asked excitedly.

Almost all of their disciples were orphans, and every time they practiced, they would bring back a new batch of disciples.

After going up the mountain, Qingku has not come down the mountain, curious about everything under the mountain, and heard the guests say that now the prosperous era is coming, and there is no war in the world.

Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said, "I won't go." ”

Qing Ku persuaded a few more words, but he just didn't go, Qing Ku could only give up.

Down?

No way!

Unless his own force is already invincible in the world, it is impossible for Jiang Changsheng to go down the mountain, Long Qiguan is in the capital, and those magnates who spy on him must still be staring.

After all, if his identity is exposed, he will be beheaded, and the real dragon will be furious, and no matter how big the official is, he will have to dismount.

In these years, the emperor purged the factions, and the heroes of the founding dynasty did not know how many died.

On the morning of the second day, the second senior brother Meng Qiuhe took a group of disciples down the mountain, including Qing Ku, Jiang Changsheng did not go to say goodbye, but practiced in front of the Dao Bell Tower towards the sun.

Until the night, Jiang Changsheng was about to get up.

[In the twelfth year of Kaiyuan, the spies persuaded the second senior brother to lead you down the mountain, but you refused, so as to avoid a killing disaster and get a survival reward - miscellaneous 'alchemy']

Seeing this line of prompts, Jiang Changsheng was stunned and almost spewed out a dirty word.

Spies?

Is there a spy in Longqi Temple?

First of all, the second senior brother Meng Qiuhe was almost killed by the senior brother who practiced martial arts when he was two years old, it was Meng Qiuhe who saved him, and this time Meng Qiuhe was persuaded.

Wait a minute!

Could it be that he is a big brother?

When I was two years old, it wasn't a mistake, but it was intentional?

Jiang Changsheng began to think about who looked at him wrong on weekdays, who was possible, and even Qing Ku was suspected by him.

After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out.

However, it can be sure that there is danger when going down the mountain, and in the Taoist temple, as long as the Qingxu Taoist is still there, the traitor will not dare to act recklessly.

What Jiang Changsheng has to do now is to work hard to grow and hide his strength.

In the last murder case, he only showed his talent for martial arts and attracted spies to act, and he must not show the Divine Shadow Legs, Vajra Xiao and Dao Natural Skills.

Fortunately, he rarely shows off on weekdays.

Jiang Changsheng got up and walked towards his courtyard, and the disciples greeted him along the way, and he responded with a smile, and then silently judged.

He refused to go down the mountain, and the spy should still be on the mountain.

Anyone who is possible!

……

The autumn leaves in the Longqi Temple are covered with snow, and after nearly 100 cycles of the sun and the moon, the snow melts, and the new spring arrives.

In the thirteenth year of Kaiyuan, Jiang Changsheng was thirteen years old.

This year, the emperor became crazy and began to pursue immortal arts, recruiting talented people from all over the world to make alchemy for him.

"How can there be immortals in this world, those evil spirits are just spirits, Your Majesty even ignores the government for the sake of immortal arts, but fortunately, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is naturally intelligent, familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and has begun to help deal with some political affairs."

Chen Li sighed with emotion, and his words were full of praise for the prince.

Jiang Changsheng's face did not change, but he was a little unhappy in his heart.

You can take power at the age of thirteen, this little rabbit cub is a little capable.

Jiang Changsheng asked curiously: "Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so good, can you tell me about him?" ”

Chen Li smiled: "Naturally, His Royal Highness the Prince is also ill-fated, before he was born, he was designated as the prince by His Majesty, and he was the prince before he was born, and throughout history, he was the only one, but the queen mother was seriously ill after giving birth to the prince, and she woke up in a coma for several months, and lost her mind after waking up, saying that His Royal Highness the prince is not her son, without the care of his mother, and other princes were born, His Royal Highness the prince can be said to have tasted the warmth and coldness of people in the palace, and even His Majesty has treated him coldly, fortunately, he is talented and intelligent, three years old can read a thousand words, and five years old can touch the scene and compose poems, He also won the favor of His Majesty. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Changsheng couldn't help but think of his mother in this life, in his mother's womb, he often heard his mother talking to herself, saying how good she would be to herself in the future, complaining about how reckless the emperor was.

There was some sourness in his heart.

It turns out that in addition to the wicked in this world, there are still people who talk about him.

Jiang Changsheng asked curiously: "How is the queen mother now, she is ...... Still a queen? ”

Chen Li glared at him and said: "That's natural, what a love between Your Majesty and the Queen Mother, God is pitiful, now the Queen Mother has recovered her health, and the relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also been repaired. ”

Jiang Changsheng was speechless, and he was a little relieved in his heart.

Either way, she's at least alive and well.
